November 3 & 4

November 3
Woke to a note from Raub inviting us to enjoy their home and pantry. I wasnt feeling well so Ben ran a hot bath for me and brewed peppermint tea. The soak was refreshing however, I still wasnt feeling well....Went back to bed until 1pm.

Got up and ate some oatmeal then ventured to Grama and Grampas. Visited with them for a while then Grama let us borrow her car to run some errands. Unsuccessful at D&B we got zinc tablets and hair clippers and Rite Aid. Returned to G&Gs and visited a while more, then bid farewell.

Stopped at WinCo for some chew toys for Sadie because I know she's bored waiting in Homey all the time. When we came out with some rawhides we discovered she had chewed several things...what timing!! The zinc bottle was merely bent up however, the sweet cds Ashlea made for our adventure were toast :( Sadie was quite pleased with her new bone, it certainly keeps her busy.

Back at the house I buzzed Ben's hair off, then we enjoyed another delicious Raub creation. Bens brother Jere drove from Sun Valley and spent the evening with us. Unfortunately my headache and nausea sent me to bed early, but the rest of the fam stayed up to visit.

November 4
When I entered the kitchen this morning Raub and Julie again were cooking away! They wouldnt let us touch a dish all weekend, what service! (thank you :) After an enjoyable breakfast and a few last words, the threesome shuffled off to work and school. I cleaned up a bit, gathered our things and loaded up Homey.

We were on the road to Boise by 8:10am. We pulled into Ontario's Community College for a lunch break and tossed the ball for Sadie.

We continued driving in search of a sweet place to camp out. Without any luck we pushed on until we reached Lakeview around 8 or 9pm. Over 400 miles today! Tired of driving we settled in the Safeway parking lot. (sweet camping spot!) We cooked a delicious pasta dish, including Aunt Rhondas fresh rosemary, then crawled into bed.
